Ikea store opens in Ohio March 12

Ohio fans of Swedish retail giant Ikea will soon have a store to call their own. The state's first Ikea opens March 12 in West Chester, 20 miles north of Cincinnati off I-75.

The new store is about four hours from Cleveland, making the Pittsburgh outlet nearly half the distance.

The West Chester store will feature 344,000 square feet of retail therapy, including 48 room settings and three model home interiors. The store also will feature what have become signature Ikea offerings: a supervised kids' play area and a Scandinavian-inspired restaurant (with Swedish meatballs and more). Grand opening specials and events are planned all week.

From Cleveland, take I-71 south to I-275 west to I-75 north. Take exit 19, travel west on Union Centre Boulevard, then turn left on Muhlhauser Road; Ikea will appear on your left. For information: www.ikea.com
